Good find! That's impressive! I like the way they blend together. I heard this tune from Overclocked Remixes some time ago. It's a take on upper Norfair and it really delivers the atmosphere well. A shame it was never used in any official game.

Had I heard this in super Metroid for my first playthrough I'd have lost my s**t right then and there  :-X

Maridia Sandy Desert right here is one of my favorite tunes of Super Metroid. It lures you into a false sense of security, then picks up the pacing for a bit a ways into the song. Maridia is not a pleasant place to be.

And from the original game, I have to go with this oldie but goodie.
Metroid (NES) Music - Kraids Hideout

Of course the remake is nice from Zero Mission, but it feels even more waltzy. Nice faux  chorus in the background too you normally don't hear on GBA speakers.

D9, why do you think walljumping is so hard? It's as easy as ball jumping in Zero Mission. All you have to have is a good controller.

Nice arrangement Jorge!  And nice picks by all!


In regards to wall jumping, can you just sit and try it for awhile and figure out a pattern or "beat" to do it right?  I don't even think about it now, but I remember learning to do it that way.  I initially got stuck in the area where the Etecoons teach you about the wall jump and when I couldn't get it to work enough to get out, I reset and quit.  Later I thought, "I know it's possible, and I want to beat this at 100%" so I sat down and made it a beat-like pattern of button presses until I got out.  After multiple playthroughs of Super Metroid and several other Metroid/non-Metroid games with the wall jump, I don't even think about how to do it anymore.  I don't know if that will help in any way...but maybe.
